Women's Tennis Blanks La Salle, 7-0, In Senior Day Match

Posted: Apr 09, 2016

Just as its men's counterparts did earlier in the day, St. Bonaventure's women's tennis team beat Atlantic 10 Conference rival La Salle University 7-0 on Saturday at the St. Bonaventure Fitness Center.

The Bonnies took the doubles point as the two Bona teams in action dropped only two games. Junior Mara Martinez-Santori and sophomore Gabrielle Bowe won 6-2 at first doubles, while junior Lauren Doversola and senior Mariam Skhirtladze did not drop a point in winning 6-0. La Salle did not field a third doubles team and thus defaulted that match.

In singles action, the Bonnies took the first four singles matches in straight sets. Martinez-Santori set the tone in at first singles as she won 6-3, 6-2.

St. Bonaventure completed the regular season 5-14. The Bonnies will head to Cincinnati, Ohio, this coming week for the Atlantic 10 Championships. The championship schedule will be announced Monday.
